The output torque T of motor 12 when vehicle launch

eNot only also pass in the present embodiment of automatic transmission 16 by the lock-up clutch 38 of local engagement (promptly skidding) by torque-converters 14, the rising of engine speed Ne (raising) amount is restricted engine speed N
eOriginally roughly remain unchanged as shown in Figure 7, becoming then moves closer to the secondary speed N that increases along with the increase of speed of a motor vehicle N
tAnd along with secondary speed N
tIncrease and increase.Because the control of skidding of lock-up clutch 38 during vehicle launch, torque-converters 14 can't be from the torque capacity big torque that can transmit of motor 12 acceptance than torque-converters 14.That is, lock-up clutch control apparatus 166 carries out the control of skidding of lock-up clutch 38 during vehicle launch, thus prevent torque-converters 14 from motor 12 accept the torque capacity that can transmit than torque-converters 14 be torque-converters 14 can hold the big torque of factor.Although lock-up clutch control apparatus 166 places separated state to lock-up clutch 38 when stopping before vehicle launch, but carry out neutral gear control, reduce to wriggle/creep by disconnecting or roughly disconnect this drive path in the automatic transmission 16 that vehicle launch time-control apparatus 166 can place jointing state to lock-up clutch 38 under the situation of torque (creep-torque) at above-mentioned neutral gear control gear 172, thereby begin the control of skidding rapidly.
When the driving conditions of vehicle becomes a predetermined condition and becomes a condition that is equal to or greater than a predetermined value as one with the merit (work) that engine stall/stop (stall) relevant preset deceleration driving conditions, a predetermined acceleration environment relevant with the deterioration of manoeuvring performance or cornering ability, the lock-up clutch 38 relevant with the working life of lock-up clutch 38 may take place, the control of skidding that 166 pairs of lock-up clutches of control restricting means 168 restriction lock-up clutch control apparatus 38 carry out that one skids.
The preset deceleration driving conditions of this vehicle refers to following condition: more engine stall may take place during the possibility increase vehicle launch of engine stall during vehicle launch.For example, can determine that when at least one condition in the following condition satisfies vehicle is under this preset deceleration condition: (a) retardation of vehicle is equal to or greater than a predetermined value, (b) activate a braking device of this vehicle, (c) rate of descent of the negative change of engine speed Ne or engine speed Ne is equal to or greater than a predetermined value, (d) rate of descent of accelerating travel θ acc or closure opening θ th is equal to or greater than a predetermined value, (e) accelerator pedal is on the off-position, (f) with control relevant sensor such as the vehicle speed sensor of skidding, speed probe or engine rotation speed sensor break down, (g) engine speed Ne becomes the secondary speed Nt that is equal to or less than torque-converters 14, (h) distance of leaving a front vehicles becomes and is equal to or less than a predetermined value, and (i) output shaft rotational speed N out or vehicle velocity V are brought up to and be equal to or greater than a predetermined value.The control restricting means 168 that skids during as the condition of possibility that above-mentioned increase engine stall occurs during vehicle launch stops the control of skidding of 166 pairs of lock-up clutches 38 of lock-up clutch control apparatus.
The predetermined acceleration environment of vehicle refers to such condition: maneuverability/maneuverability during vehicle launch (drivability) worsens.For example, can determine that when at least one condition in the following condition satisfies vehicle is under the predetermined acceleration environment: (a) accelerating travel θ acc or closure opening θ th become and are equal to or greater than a predetermined value, (b) increment rate of accelerating travel θ acc or closure opening θ th becomes and is equal to or greater than a predetermined value, (c) vehicle begins to travel on going up a slope or the gradient of going up a slope that vehicle travels thereon becomes and is equal to or greater than a predetermined value one, and the manually-operable gear changing mode of (d) selecting automatic transmission 16.The control restricting means 168 that skids becomes at accelerating travel θ acc or closure opening θ th and reduces to skid the torque capacity of the lock-up clutch 38 under the control when being equal to or greater than predetermined value; When being equal to or greater than predetermined value, the increment rate of accelerating travel θ acc or closure opening θ th stops the control of skidding of 166 pairs of lock-up clutches 38 of lock-up clutch control apparatus.Skid and control the torque capacity of restricting means 168 according to the lock-up clutch 38 of grade reduction under the control of skidding of this upward slope; Become in the gradient of this upward slope and to stop the control of skidding of 166 pairs of lock-up clutches 38 of lock-up clutch control apparatus when being equal to or greater than predetermined value.When selecting the manually-operable gear changing mode of automatic transmission 16, for example when gear changing mode when an automaitc shfit mode converts the hand shift mode to or when shift level is pushed to from the D position 3,2 and the L position skid during arbitrary position and control the control of skidding that restricting means 168 stops 166 pairs of lock-up clutches 38 of lock-up clutch control apparatus.
The merit of lock-up clutch 38 condition that is equal to or greater than predetermined value that becomes refers to such condition: the predetermined condition of determining the state that the friction material of lock-up clutch 38 reduces working life is met.For example, can establish above-mentioned condition when at least one condition in the following condition satisfies: (a) the heat estimated value (or calculated value) that absorbs of lock-up clutch 38 surpasses a predetermined value and/or absorbs heat or its integral value keeps greater than a predetermined value in one period scheduled time or in the longer time, (b) the temperature T oil of the hydraulic fluid in the automatic transmission 16 become be equal to or greater than a predetermined value and (c) when accelerating travel θ acc is in the prespecified range acceleration of vehicle be equal to or less than a predetermined value.The condition that the acceleration of vehicle is equal to or less than a predetermined value when accelerating travel θ acc is in the prespecified range refers to such conditioned disjunction state: though vehicle acceleration that vehicle launch recorded after a period of time or speed of a motor vehicle accelerating travel θ acc be in one be equal to or greater than do not reach in the acceleration range of a predetermined value yet or super only with the accelerating travel θ acc relevant acceleration or the speed of a motor vehicle.When the running resistance height of vehicle, for example vehicle travel on one goes up a slope or thereby this operational vehicle is applied the load of a Parking or emergency braking lock-up clutch 38 or merit because this high running resistance can form this condition when big.Here, the parameter of accelerating travel θ acc as an expression engine loading, it is equivalent to the flow rate, fuel injection amount etc. of closure opening θ th, air inlet.
The heat estimated value (or calculated value) that absorbs (or generation) when lock-up clutch 38 surpasses the control of skidding that the control restricting means 168 that skids when a predetermined value and/or absorption heat or its integral value keep greater than a predetermined value in one period scheduled time or in the longer time also stops 166 pairs of lock-up clutches 38 of lock-up clutch control apparatus.In addition, also stop the control of skidding of 166 pairs of lock-up clutches 38 of lock-up clutch control apparatus when the become control restricting means 168 that skids when being equal to or greater than this predetermined value of the oily temperature Toil of automatic transmission 16.In addition, the acceleration of vehicle is equal to or less than this predetermined value when being in this prespecified range as accelerating travel θ acc, and the control restricting means 168 that skids also stops the control of skidding of 166 pairs of lock-up clutches 38 of lock-up clutch control apparatus.
Get back to Fig. 6, one stop to determine that device 170 for example determines that vehicle is in vehicle stop state when output shaft rotational speed N out or vehicle velocity V are equal to or less than a predetermined parking judgment value.One neutral gear control gear 172 for example stop to determine that device 170 determines that vehicle parkings, accelerating travel θ acc or closure opening θ th equal 0, shift level is in the D position and vehicle is carried out neutral gear control on level road the time and made this drive path of automatic transmission 16 roughly place off state, improves fuel efficiency or reduces the torque of wriggling thereby reduce motor 12 loads during by idling.In neutral gear control, as the clutch C1 of the hydraulic frictional device of establishing the first speed transmission level and break B2 substantial separation (promptly placing the slipping state slightly that engages before tight) and engaging respectively, thereby set up a starting holding state, under this state, this drive path substantial separation or disconnection of automatic transmission 16, but clutch C1 is in case just can start immediately from half joint or slipping state engaged with vehicle.
The input torque Tin that one reset pressure control gear 174 is represented according to common available accelerating travel θ acc or closure opening θ th is through first modulating valve 62 or second modulating valve 66 of linear solenoid valve SLT regulating and controlling as the first line pressure P11 of the reset pressure of each hydraulic frictional device in the automatic transmission 16.When carrying out neutral gear control when neutral gear control gear 172 stops, reset pressure control gear 174 improves the first line pressure P11, one predetermined value as shown in Figure 9, thereby guarantees to be subjected to the controllability of activating pressure of the clutch C1 of neutral gear control.When vehicle lock-up clutch 38 after neutral gear control is finished is in when starting under the slipping state, reset pressure control gear 174 reduces the first line pressure P11 as Fig. 9 dotted line example gradually, linearly with the predetermined variation rate.
Figure 10,11,12 and 13 is the flow chart that the major component of the control operation of being undertaken by electric control device 40 is described.Definitely say, a lock-up clutch control program of carrying out when Figure 10 illustrates vehicle launch, Figure 11 is illustrated in some time lag to determining whether the control of Figure 10 lock-up clutch will finish an interruption/insertion program of carrying out, Figure 12 in some time lag for controlling the interrupt routine that the content of finishing sign is carried out, and Figure 13 illustrates first line pressure (reset pressure) control program of carrying out when the control of Figure 10 lock-up clutch is carried out in a neutral gear control back when finishing.
With reference to Figure 10, after step SA1 carries out the known input/output signal of prior art and handles, determining that with vehicle launch the corresponding step SA2 of device 162 determines whether vehicle starts and determines promptly whether brake petal has got back to off-position.As the answer at step SA2 is not, then repeats above-mentioned steps SA1.As in the answer of step SA2 for being, clutch switching valve 52 switches to the ON position by the valve 50 of operated by solenoid and linear solenoid valve 54 starts skid control valve 56 in step SA3, thereby lock-up clutch 38 is switched to the state of a control of skidding.Determining among the corresponding next step SA4 in device/unit 164 with the target value of skidding, for example relation shown in solid line or the dotted line is determined required output torque according to actual accelerating travel θ acc or closure opening θ th from Fig. 8, determines to be used to provide the engine output torque T corresponding with required output torque

Carry out the step SA5-SA9 corresponding then with lock-up clutch control apparatus 166.Definitely say, in step SA5, determine lock-up clutch 38 the actual rotational speed N s that skids (=Ne-Nin) whether less than the target rotational speed N sm that skids.As in the answer of step SA5 for not, the torque capacity of lock-up clutch 38 in step SA6 (torque is transmitted in institute) re-executes step SA5 thereby increase by one predetermined value reduces to skid behind the rotational speed N s.As in the answer of step SA5 for being, whether the actual rotating speed that skids of then determining lock-up clutch 38 in step SA7 greater than the target rotational speed N sm that skids.As in the answer of step SA7 for not, the torque capacity of lock-up clutch 38 in step SA8 (torque is transmitted in institute) thus reducing predetermined value raising skids and re-executes step SA7 behind the rotational speed N s.As in the answer of step SA7 for being, mean that then the actual rotational speed N s that skids is substantially equal to the target rotational speed N sm that skids.At this moment, keep or continue the current slipping state of lock-up clutch 38 at step SA9.
